Hermann Orduña

(Mexico City, 1977) is one of the young talents of the Mexican art. Periods of his staying in Oaxaca - the cradle of great artists as Francisco Toledo and Rodolfo Nieto - as well as his education in the National School of Fine Arts in Mexico City had both a great influence on his art. In 2003 - after specializing in etching and lithography - he moves to Barcelona, were he lives now. Orduna's work reveals a profound relationship with nature, especially with the animals, the earth, the cosmos, the sun and the moon to which he assigns the influence on man and his mood. Birds, catlike and other fantastic animals inhabit a lot of his artwork. In 2005 he participates in Forum Social Mediterráneo with Josep Guinovar, Rafols-Casamada, Alfons Borrell and Antoni Llena, great Catalan artists. His work has been exposed in diverse European and American cities. In 2008 he opens the etching workshop and gallery La Rueda.
